To be honest, I don't think we need separate articles for every area in the Shipwreck Tale (and ''especially'' not for night expeditions, of which there are 16). The main articles can handle both issues while staying within a comfortable size, and the average reader is smart enough to scroll down to the game mode that they want to read about.

Splitting the articles

To be honest, I don't think we need separate articles for every area in the Shipwreck Tale (and especially not for night expeditions, of which there are 16). The main articles can handle both issues while staying within a comfortable size, and the average reader is smart enough to scroll down to the game mode that they want to read about.

This was discussed for a while on the Discord before we decided to do it. The primary reason was actually infoboxes – including Olimar's Shipwreck Tale information and main story information in the same area infobox was just not feasible, and more can be said about each appearance of the area if they're in separate pages. Compare the situation to Pikmin 3, where Distant Tundra, Distant Tundra Remix, and Tundra cover information about the same area in different appearances. By splitting area articles into one covering the main story, one covering Olimar's Shipwreck Tale, and one covering all the night expeditions that take place in the area, it makes it easier to document each. — Soprano(talk) 04:37, January 2, 2024 (EST)
